Dream Scape

I lay in my bed Eyes wide awake, Hoping for sleep The time it would take, I find myself running And I tripped then I fell, Who was chasing me yelling? I was scared I couldn’t tell, I ran through the darkness It felt like a race, The tree branches scratching And tearing my face, I could hear all the footsteps Catching up to me quick, My heart was so pounding It was making me sick, Then I splashed through the water My feet left the land, The moment I realized I was deep in quicksand, I started to cry For this moment I knew, I was caught in this dream Couldn’t wake up for you, When hands started reaching The dream in my head, I finally woke up and Found sand in my bed.
